Craftsman peanut, Schrade or Camillus?

I raised this question in a thread about my Craftsman knives, but maybe it will get more attention in a thread of its own.

When I first got the Sears Craftsman 95041 cream sawcut peanut I assumed it was Schrade, and posted accordingly. Then someone told me it was probably Camillus. I noted its similarity to my Camillus 22 pony jack, and agreed.

Now that I have the Craftsman 9507 I am wondering if both of these Craftsman peanuts are Schrade knives. The size, frame, and blades appear to be identical. To me, the 95041 looks much more similar to the 9507 than to the 22 pony jack. The main similarity between the 95041 and the 22 is the angle of the clip blade when open.

So, is the Sears Craftsman 95041 cream sawcut peanut made by Schrade or Camillus?
 
Well, when I doubt, I tend to fall back to the duck theory, If it quacks and looks like one, then it must be a duck. Looking at your knives, I see one heck of a family resemblance.

What I have read is that the four digit model numbers are Schrade and the five digit model numbers are Camillus.
 
I thought I remembered a list of Craftsman knifes broken down by manufacture and years. Can't seem to relocate it.
